Eagles to perform “Hotel California” in its entirety for the first time ever

For the first time ever, the Eagles —  Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit, with Deacon Frey and Vince Gill  — will perform their iconic “Hotel California” album in its entirety during their only North American performances of 2019.

The performances will take place on Friday, Sept. 27 and Saturday, Sept. 28 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show will also include an additional set of the band’s greatest hits. Tickets start at $179 (not including applicable service charges or fees) and go on sale to the general public on Friday, April 12 at 10 a.m. PDT  through Ticketmaster.com.

“Hotel California” is the third best-selling U.S. album in history, recently certified 26-times Platinum by the RIAA. After its release in 1976, it topped the charts and won two GRAMMY Awards for “New Kid in Town” and “Hotel California.”  Several of the songs from the album have never been performed since the original “Hotel California” tour.  The RIAA also certified “Their Greatest Hits 1971-1977” as the best-selling U.S. album in history.

As the best-selling American band of the 1970s, and one of the top-selling acts of all time, the Eagles have sold more than 150 million albums worldwide, scored six No. 1 albums and topped the singles charts five times. They have won six Grammy Awards, were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 in their first year of eligibility, and received the Kennedy Center Honors in 2016.
